This one is worth buying for a reason that only makes sense if we do both, so here is the short version: the QT Pro is the \u003cstrong\u003esimpler\u003c\/strong\u003e of Quincy’s two 10 HP shop packages. Two-piece connecting rods, a splash-lubricated cast-iron pump, a magnetic starter, a finned intercooler and a 120-gallon vertical receiver. No aftercooler. No electronic tank drain. No automatic shutdown on low oil.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFor a shop running impact guns, blowguns, hoists and general bay air, that is a sensible machine and a cheaper one. For a paint booth or a plasma table, the omissions matter and you should read the last two paragraphs of this section before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eFewer parts is a real claim, not a slogan\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTwo-piece connecting rods are the headline feature Quincy lists for this pump, and the reason is arithmetic rather than marketing. Every joint inside a compressor is a wear surface, a fastener that can loosen and a component that eventually needs a technician standing in front of it. Reducing the count is one of the few reliability improvements that cannot be undone by a bad batch or a hot summer.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSplash lubrication follows the same logic. There is no oil pump, no filter and no pressure gallery to fail; the crankshaft throws oil from a sump onto the bearings and cylinder walls, and an oil sight glass lets you confirm the level in a second. Belt drive rather than direct coupling keeps the pump turning more slowly than the motor and isolates the crank from motor shock loads. Quincy rates the pump past 50,000 hours of service.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat two stages buy you at 175 PSI\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAir enters the low-pressure cylinder, is compressed part of the way, passes through the high-efficiency finned intercooler where the heat of that first compression is removed, and then enters the high-pressure cylinder for the rest of the journey. Rated maximum is 175 PSI.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe intercooler is doing the real work. Compressing hot air costs more energy than compressing cool air, and a single-stage pump asked to reach 175 PSI in one bite runs hot enough to cook its own oil. Splitting the job and cooling in the middle is why this class of machine can hold that pressure through a full shift rather than in short bursts.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe three things it does not have\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eOur specification data records this model with \u003cstrong\u003eno aftercooler\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eno electronic drain valve\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eno low oil shut-off switch\u003c\/strong\u003e. Taking them in turn:\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNo aftercooler\u003c\/strong\u003e means the discharge air is not cooled between the pump and the tank, so more of its moisture condenses further down the line — in your pipework and your tools rather than in the receiver. If you are spraying paint or cutting with plasma, plan on an aftercooler, a dryer or a properly designed dry-line loop.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNo electronic drain valve\u003c\/strong\u003e means somebody has to drain the receiver manually and regularly. It is a two-minute job and it is the single thing that decides whether an air receiver rusts from the inside. A retrofit automatic drain is inexpensive.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNo low oil shut-off\u003c\/strong\u003e means the machine will keep running with the oil level down. Check the sight glass on a schedule, not when you remember.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eNone of that makes it a bad compressor. It makes it a compressor with a maintenance routine, and if you would rather the machine did that thinking for you, the horizontal QT MAX package in this catalogue has all three features fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFootprint:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40\" by 30\", plus clearance to reach the belt guard and the oil fill.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75\" overall, and you want headroom above that to lift the pump for service.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMass:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,000 lbs dry, most of it high up.

A CSA mark is also carried. There is a further reference in our supplier data to a North American third-party electrical listing, which we are not printing because the record behind it is not clean. Ask us before ordering if a named electrical listing is a condition of your cover, and we will confirm what the data plate says.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis ships as freight within the lower 48 states, crated on a skid.
